Descendants of Gabriel Séguin mostly through his son Joseph Sequin

Please note: My direct line ancestor is the son, Joseph Seguin/Sequin (1852-1925).
Per records in Michigan, I've found on this couple or on their children, Joseph's wife, Sophia's, maiden name is one of the following (Shorette; Sharat; Chauret; Challette; Ceress; Gascon; Gescheare; or Gasco' dit Charette) In researching in Ontario Sophia's maiden name appears as Sophia Loranger dit Gascon or as Sophia Gascon. Can anybody tell me what is the correct total name for her?

In Joseph's obit, three sisters are listed as surviving him; Mrs. W. J. LaVergne (first name is Emma)(initials in error) of Detroit, MI; Mrs. Norman Roe (found to be Mrs. 'Matilda' Asa Norton Roe) of New York and Mrs. Mitchell of Canada. Mrs. Mitchell has not been found. If you can help me locate this sister, it would be appreciated. There has been mention of the possibility of a brother named Arthur. None has been found.

The name Gabriel has been found as a son in this family but he and Joseph don't appear together in any records. It is believed they are the same person.
